Ah, to go back...

Last night, my husband and I attended the temple to support our nephew who is due at the MTC in December. He'll be going to the Las Vegas West mission.
With Mira's back being the way it is, we haven't been able to attend as much as we would like to. This week, I'd been praying that he would be able to attend, even fasted the day of for him. Sure enough, he was able to go! He had some pain and was uncomfortable, but he was able to do all the things he needed to do (except stand up, but it was ok). It's been so long since we've been there, and I was thrilled to be able to go back.
Since I really wanted him to be there (I've been without him, and it's just not the same), I even did my best to watch what I did, just to make sure. I was careful with what I read, watched, listened to, etc. That may have helped, I think. Who knows? All I know is that my hubby and I were able to visit the Lord's house, and it was good to be there.

Conference Today!

Today was the conclusion of the 174th General Conference. The "Motabs" sang at both sessions, and I saw my uncle in the choir (well, about 3/4 of his face, at any rate). We also had the two vacancies in the Quorum of the 12 filled. The men were Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf and Elder David A. Bednar. Good luck, guys!
